<em>The correct option is</em> D.   The initial momentum of the blue and green train combined during the collision is 200 kgm/s.

<h3>Initial momentum of the blue and green train</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

Pi = m1v1 + m2v2

where;

  • m1 is mass of blue train
  • m2 is mass of green train
  • v1 is velocity of blue train
  • v2 is velocity green train
  • Pi is the initial momentum of the two trains

Pi = (50 x 4) + 30(0)

Pi = 200 kgm/s

Thus, the initial momentum of the blue and green train combined is 200 kgm/s.

A mass m is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude a, it has a period t. What is
Luden [163]

The period will be the same if the amplitude of the motion is increased to 2a

What is an Amplitude?

Amplitude refers to the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.

Here,

mass m is attached to the spring.

mass attached = m

time period = t

We know that,

The time period for the spring is calculated with the equation:

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

Where k is the spring constant

Now if the amplitude is doubled, it means that the distance from the equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.

From the equation, we can say,

Time period of the spring is independent of the amplitude.

Hence,

Increasing the amplitude does not affect the period of the mass and spring system.

What must you know to find the amount of work done on an object
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The work is calculated by multiplying the force by the amount of movement of an object (W = F * d). A force of 10 newtons, that moves an object 3 meters, does 30 n-m of work. A newton-meter is the same thing as a joule, so the units for work are the same as those for energy – joules.

8 The diagram shows four identical spheres placed between two wooden blocks on a ruler.
enyata [817]

The diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

<h3>How to calculate the diameter?</h3>

From the diagram, the first sphere on the ruler is at 4cn and the last sphere is at 12cm.

Therefore, the length will be:

= 12 - 4.

= 8cm

The diameter of one sphere will be:

= Length / 4

= 8/4

= 2

Therefore, the diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

Note that the second question wasn't found online.
